Abstract: A method described herein involves various operations directed toward network security. The operations include accessing transaction data describing network traffic associated with a web server during an interval. Based on a count of new transactions involving an online entity during the interval according to the transaction data, a short-term trend is determined for the online entity. The operations further include applying exponential smoothing to a history of transactions of the online entity to compute a long-term trend for the online entity. Based on a comparison between the short-term trend and the long-term trend for the online entity, an anomaly is detected with respect to the online entity in the network traffic associated with the web server. Responsive to detecting the anomaly, an access control is implemented between the online entity and the web server.

Abstract: Various embodiments provide for annotating a geographic map. Display of a geographic map on a client device can be adjusted (e.g., pan over geographic map or adjust zoom level), and a first set of map annotations for the adjusted map is determined, where the first set of map annotations comprises at least one map annotation associated with a transport service opportunity. From the first set of map annotations, a second set of map annotations can be determined based on a map annotation visual hierarchy. For instance, at least a portion of the second set of map annotations can be determined by filtering the first set of map annotations based on a type of transport service opportunity. Subsequently, the second set of map annotations can be presented on the adjusted map on the display.

Abstract: A system determines an interaction period during which a fuel dispensing operation is performed at a fuel dispensing terminal. The system determines a measured volume per unit time parameter associated with fuel dispensed from the fuel dispensing terminal by dividing the determined volume for fuel by the interaction period. The system compares the measured volume per unit time parameter with a threshold volume per unit time parameter. In response to determining that the measured volume per unit time parameter is less than the threshold volume per unit time parameter, the system retrieves a video feed that shows the fuel dispensing terminal during the fuel dispensing operation. The system creates a file for the fuel dispensing operation. The system stores the video feed in the created file.

Abstract: A stimulus is displayed in a visual field on a stimulus side (e.g., right or left) of a subject. An input is received from an input side of the subject. Where the input side is contralateral to the first stimulus side, a crossed reaction time is determined as a span of time between displaying the stimulus and receiving the input. Where the input side is ipsilateral to the stimulus side, an uncrossed reaction time is determined as a span of time between displaying the stimulus and receiving the input. A crossed-uncrossed difference time can be determined as a difference between the crossed reaction time and the uncrossed reaction time. The crossed reaction time, the uncrossed reaction time, and/or the crossed-uncrossed difference time can be used to determine a severity of Traumatic Brain Injury of the subject.
